Event Details

Aida Español Vilanova defends her PhD thesis: The Works of An Architect. Tectonic Matters.

The thesis presents the built works of the Danish architect Hans Christian Hansen (HCH, 1901-1978) who worked at the office of the city architect in Copenhagen between the late 1930’s and early 1970’s. The hypothesis is that HCH´s works are characteristic from a tectonic perspective and quite unique in its geographical and historical context.
